Knead the dough 8 or 9 times. Pat into a circle about 10" round. For the glaze, spread the butter over the top and side of the circle of dough and sprinkle the sugar on top. Cut the circle into 12 wedges and place each piece on the baking sheet, allowing about an inch between pieces.Bake for about 15 minutes or until golden brown.
